Hi YoYo155,
can you please explain me your post? Your whole post is one big lie, shame on you! :mad:

Your so called "culprit" is taken from invalid callstack and no matter there're addresses which represent aswSP/aswSnx drivers. System crashed with this valid stack range <fffff880`033c3fb8 to fffff880`033c5000> and you dumped memory blocks from fffff880`033c3258 to fffff880`033c3c08. As you can see, it is TOTALLY WRONG.

Another thing, if you open the dump and load Windows symbols, you'd see this callstack:

And you can see that PnP functions + NDIS functions signals system crashed during PnP removable action (bluetooth, wifi, ...). So it has nothing to do with aswSP or aswSnx drivers. All OP's dumps show the same callstack.

Hi xpkt. Thank you for replying.

I would like to add that I uninstalled Avast on 4/September/2013 and the computer has since been running 24/7 without BSODs (today is 14/Sept). I restarted the computer on 11/Sept.
Currently it just runs a software called ThreadManager from coin generation. I haven't used it heavily as I did before but I do some web browsing with FireFox.

Also, Windows was unable to save memory dumps since July so I think those BSODs are not part of the upload.
The only peripheral connected is a Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse 1000.

I also posted in the Avast forum:
http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=134461.0

What do you think caused those crashes? Are they related to Intel device drivers?

Thanks!

YoYo155 is 100% correct with his analysis!

I dont know how to read crash dumps ... that does not mean that one who knows it is a liar. Better to develop self, not rather attacking others.

YoYo155 .... dont mind that attack :) Remember our learning days :D. That guy is just impatient :D
We learned, he failed .... due to his impatience only.

@ Capelo Rego, if you havent faced any more BSODs after uninstalling avast, please mark this thread as solved.
